<TITLE>Emacs & Zope -- M-x html-mode ... but doesn't color the document for html ???</TITLE>

<!-- Converted from text/plain format -->
<P><FONT SIZE=2>Howdy,<BR>
<BR>
Switching over from Window Dev. Env<BR>
EditPlus ==> Ftp-enabled browsing & editing, color/syntax-editing -- menu to choose file-type --> so easy<BR>
<BR>
Almost there with Emacs/XEmacs:<BR>
(Emacs 101: Ctrl-x == C-x, Alt-x == M-x)<BR>
C-x C-f ==> /jason@server 8830:/ ==> prompts for password, ftp-enabled browse & edit ... perfect!<BR>
<BR>
But, no file extensions, so we have to tell Emacs that a file w/ no extension is html<BR>
M-x html-mode ... so I'm in html mode (right?)<BR>
open main_template.html (copy on local) ... perfect coloring<BR>
open main_template via ftp, M-x html-mode ... and just what's in """" is green???<BR>
<BR>
Obviously this is just an Emacs question ... but I found all help out there useless beyond<BR>
changing to html-mode. (I'm hoping emacs will prove its worth in minimal time ...)<BR>
<BR>
thanks so much!!<BR>
<BR>
Failed to get these to work for an ftp-enabled, colored syntax flexible dev. environment:<BR>
K-Develop/Kate/Konqueror -- too much overhead<BR>
GVIM --> easy to switch code/file-type from menu for color-editing ... but no ftp-enabled browse/edit<BR>
Zope-External Editor: was able to view file in my browser of choice after install, and browser setup, and chmod +x zope_edit.py ... but couldn't get save to work.<BR>
